Adjusting, removing and replacing the return spring for units
built before June 2016
The unit comprises 4 compression springs
for the return position function. The units are set ex-works in ac-
cordance with the catalog values.
These force values can still be modified slightly on the unit by ad-
justing the setscrews (50).
NOTE
If the setscrews are screwed-in too far, this will cause the unit to
jam (springs on block). This can be recognized if the unit is no
longer performing the complete stroke or is no longer moving.

The units are delivered ex-works with the following setting dimen-
sions for the setscrews:

1 Remove the setscrews (50).
2 Remove the spring sleeve (4) and take out the springs (15).
As standard, three springs are available for each size. Special
springs on request.
The new springs are assembled in the reverse order.
Pay attention to correct lubricating.(9.2, Page 21)
Removing and replacing return springs for units built
beginning in June 2016
The unit comprises 4 compression springs for the return position
function.
As of June 2016, the unit's spring force values can no longer be ad-
justed.

NOTICE
Sensor can be damaged during assembly.
• Do not exceed the maximum tightening torque of 10 Ncm for
the setscrews.
NOTE
Ferromagnetic material changes the switching positions of the
sensor. For example: Ada
pter plate made of ordinary steel.
At ferromagnetic adapter plates:
• The module must firstly be mounted on the adapter plate
• Then, the positions of the magnetic switch have to be set
NOTE
• Do not use the sensor as a safety component.
• Do not pull on the cable of the sensor.
• Secure the cable and connection plug so that they are not
taught and cannot move during operation.
• Do not exceed the permitted bending radius of the cable.
• Do not allow the sensor to come into contact with hard objects
and chemicals (e. g., nitric acid, chromic acid and sulfuric acid).

Troubleshooting
Module does not move?
Possible cause
Corrective action
Setscrew/stop screw screwed in too deep
Use a shorter stop screw (

7.3, Page 14)
Setscrew for spring adjustment screwed in
too far
Turn back the setscrew (50) (

7.4, Page 16)
Magnetic switch (MMS) does not work / cannot be adjusted
Possible cause
Corrective action
Steel screws used for fastening the compen-
sation unit
Replace steel screws with high-alloyed
screws
Mounting plates, angle brackets etc. from
magnetizable materials
Check, replace with nonmagnetizable parts
– perhaps use aluminum or plastic
